Description
Who was Arza?
Arza was the steward of the household of Elah, king of Israel. Elah was the son of Baasha and became king in the twenty-sixth year of Asa, king of Judah. However, Elah's reign was short-lived. While Elah was drinking himself drunk in the house of Arza in Tirzah, his servant Zimri, commander of half his chariots, conspired against him and killed him. This fulfilled the prophecy against Baasha's house due to his evil ways.
Relations
Direct connections
The kinship import reads the registry's own columns — parent, child, sibling, spouse — for every entity in it, and records none here. An extracted relation would be listed beside them, and none names this person either.
Not stated
No family is recorded for this person.
Places
Where this happens
A person is placed by the events they take part in, and an event has to clear three things to place them: it must say where it happened, that place must be one the gazetteer can put a coordinate on, and the verse must report it rather than foretell, command or ask it. Nothing anchored here clears all three. Where the text names a setting no gazetteer surveys — a vineyard, a palace, a plot of ground — it is left off rather than guessed at; where a place is named only in a prophecy, the map does not draw what was said to be coming as though it had happened; and a place reached only through a relation is not inherited, because standing beside somebody is not being somewhere.
No verse Atlas has read as a report puts this person anywhere.
